Currently underway, the Kutaisi International Short Film Festival is celebrating its fourth year of bringing cinema to one of the oldest cites of the Republic of Georgia. Its focus is “on short films and it aims at discovering new talents and voices in the film industry and cinema.”
We’re pleased to announce that, on October 23, 2023, at 11 AM and 7 PM, “DON’T CHOKE” -- a short film written and directed by Sonny Baez – will be screening at this year’s festivities. You’ll find us at the Sakartvelo Cinema, 14 Tamar Mephe St (Kutaisi, Georgia).
In this “dramedy,” the director explores “the toxicity, violence and passion surrounding the end of a marriage.” And he depicts a couple’s child-custody battle in a unique way.

Our sincerest thanks to everyone at KISFF for this honor and our congratulations to our DON’T CHOKE family. (Their IG tags follow.)
